Scarlet – a clustering extension for Atlassian JIRA

In 2009 we tried to push JIRA performances beyond its limits for a major italian Telco, developing Scarlet, built with performance and high-availability environments in mind. Based on Terracotta DSO and JIRA 3, the first Scarlet version is still in production.

At the time JIRA 4 entered the market, we developed an upgraded version of Scarlet based on JBoss Infinispan. Efforts done by Sourcesense were  key to build the first Lucene/Infinispan integration.

However, this version of Scarlet was not released because of the time overlap on Infinispan support and release of JIRA 5.1 . The  performance boos showed that the new Atlassian Enterprise team is supportive of Sourcesense’s architecture and as Sourcesense is not a product company,  in 2012 we shared our all our Scarlet experience with Atlassian Enterprise team.

Scarlet demonstrate how deeply Sourcesense is able to delve into the Atlassian codebase to deliver  Enterprise performances.

For the future we are looking for new  exciting challenges. Anyone interested in a JIRA/LucidWorks integration that looks to the Big Data space? Have other cool ideas? Feel free to get in touch.
